Weetabix (breakfast cereal)

It's humorous in a gentle way. It works well because we can identify with the situations, even though they're a bit stereotypical.

Dulux (emulsion paint)

The target market seems quite clearly to be parents whose children are ready to leave home. We tend to think about redecorating in response to changes in our lives, but this ad turns that idea on its head!

Vitaldent (dental clinics)

It's an informal advert that try be humoristic, but, to me, it becomes absurd and even insulting. The target market is families who like "make peace whit the dentist".

The controversial campaign has been denounced by xenophobia.

Honda Accord (car)

It's a completely different car advertisement. It gets your attention with the silence and the unknown, even if you are not interested in cars.

The slogan is based on the simplicity of the things when they just work, but this ad was the most expensive of 2011 and it took 606 takes and re-takes to make and the cost was over 6 million dollars.

Product: sales of insurances

Style: Formal and Classic

Slogan: They say that if we buy these insurances we will be save.

Target Market: Adults with economical resources.

Opinion: I think that is very succesful because of the music and the special effects. I realized that we need insurances in each time of our lives.

It is an informal advert simply design with a charming poppy as a principal character. t he slogan seem to show the food's qualities over the intelligence of the poppys which try it. target market are owners of pets and success factor I think is the charming poppy and its premature intelligence. I would recomend this food to my friends.

Tetley Tea Cups Bag

This ad is about the difference between having or not a cup of tea. Only four or five minutes can be very different for someone who is having or not a cup of tea.

It's for everyone who wants to feel good and special.

Dog food

The target market is fashionable dog owners.

The result is that pets will become like the people who take care of them and loves them.

It's an amazing chocolate advert. It keeps your attention with the burstling home, brilliant clothes colours and dinamic music.

The target market is basically for parents who want to love them.

It is a tea advert called typhoo, this situation happen in summer, and the people who drank typhoo tea is happy and dancing. There is a question everywhere: "Have you been refreshed? ". They use a catchy song and people dance with the music. Their target market is low and middle class.

Be Water My Friend!

What is it to “be water“? Water flows and adapts.

Bruce in speaking of be water is talking about a Tao concept called Wu Wei - knowing when to act and when not to act.

Best ad of 2006 according to Motorpasión readers.

Be water my friend!: spot of great success for
its effectiveness and provoking emotion in the
viewer. Bruce Lee and his legendary 'be
water, my friend', increased sales of BMW X3 by 73%.
